EPS file that does not print
Not entirely sure what's to blame for this. Will ask on the cups development mailing list. The EPS file is malformed:
fig3.eps: FAIL
Missing or bad %%Pages: comment!
REF: Page 43, %%Pages:
Missing or bad %%Page: comments!
REF: Page 53, %%Page:
In other words, not only is '%%Pages:' missing, but '%%Page:' is missing for
each page as well. Adding both of these in gives me a file that prints correctly.
Assuming your EPS file was generated using grace on Fedora 8, changing component
and reassigning.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping How was the figure generated? Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. This bug still exists in Fedora Core 10. EPS file is produced in grace by the following. 1. Run xmgrace 2. File -> Print Setup 3. Change device to EPS 4. Click Accept 5. File -> Print Now the file "Untitled.eps" is created. It will not print from evince. The file can be fixed manually by adding the following two lines to the header (I have only tested at the end, but that probably doesn't matter): %%Pages: 1 %%Page: 1 |
